Most pubs are licenced to stay open till 10pm but none can sell takeaway alcohol.

There is pleasure in the pathless woods,There is a rapture on the lonely shore,There is society, where none intrudes,By the deep sea, and music in its roar:I love not man the less, but Nature more.... Lord Byron

this makes me cranky. it seems like such an old fashioned restriction.

i assume it's because Good Friday is a religious holiday but there's a hell of lot of non-Christians who should have the right to buy alcohol as they usually can on a public holiday. it's obviously also bad for businesses.

Thankfully I expect to be so hungover from the night before that the thought of alcohol on GF will repulse me....

samjam: depends on the restaurant, because it's a public holiday I would assume that most seafood places would be open for trading, as would the bigger restaurants. if you are planning on eating out, it might be an idea to call the restaurant you want to visit in advance and asking them.

ive just been told that i have a case of wine at home, so yay for not having to stop at the bottle-o with every other freak this afternoon!
